Speed of Sound measurements for CCS – Let’s hear it!

In 2024, Research Scientist Yessica Arellano (SINTEF Energy Research) spent a month in South Kensington, visiting the Imperial College of London (ICL). Hosted by Professor Martin Trusler, Yessica had the opportunity to calibrate and run experiments with one of their speed of sound cells. The visit was conducted through the Norwegian CCS Research Centre (NCCS) Mobility Programme.

Why experiments and modelling are necessary for the safe design and operation of CO₂ transport systems

CO₂ capture, transport and storage (CCS) systems are an important part of our toolbox for mitigating climate change. However, increased R&D efforts are needed to facilitate an efficient and safe scaling up of CCS to the level needed to mitigate climate change. In his keynote speech at TCCS-12, SINTEF Chief Scientist Svend Tollak Munkejord discussed why both experiments and models are a necessary part of this effort.
